Looks like a reed valve from inside your A/C compressor...looks like you blew a hole in the side of the compressor to me....at least thats what it looks like. Looks like a big chunk is missing...

That is definitely not normal. Looks like something kicked up and punctured your AC compressor.

It would only make noise if your A/C was engaged, unless the compressor bearings are screwed up....but even then, it wouldnt be a ticking noise....more like a squeel or moan (like a bad wheel bearing)

That picture is one of the best ways to ask a question ever. I'm sorry and I know it sucks, but man, I laughed at how you presented it.

PZOWNED!!!!!!

sorry. Find someone who works for a GM dealership that you are friends with and ask them to buy the compressor. It will lop of a GOOD AMOUNT of money with their employee discount, I know my Ford discount helped me a lot...

I'd say it blew out from inside the compressor. I wouldn't think road debris could get that kind of force. If the a/c still blows cold it will probably stop soon.
